Sent you a reply. I just never find myself using both IS Harbies so I figure I can let one go. Plus I have to fund the purchase spree for the next expansion somehow. Heh
If you're going to do a 2nd Invitational with it sp8cdt, I'll work out something below what I'd do for another collector. Just don't tell anyone I helped you bearded midgets out :)

Hehe, there is other ways of aquiring expansion runes, like trading your Harbinger into a store like mine ;)

I'm aware I could easily do so. You may recall that at one time I had the largest and most active store in Poxnora, which I closed just before credits were removed. I could probably re-open with my existing extras and once again be one of the larger traders but quite frankly, it's more effort than I care to put in and I dislike the economics that lack of credits imposes. I don't want to have to screw customers in value return just to keep a working ROI.
In order to stay afloat as a shop now almost requires a 2 for 1 exchange rate. With credits it was much easier to keep pricing close to actual value (as opposed to trade-in value) and still keep growing inventory with pack purchases. Invariably you could flip pack contents for more than 1.5x the invested cost (with higher returns depending on exotic pulls) and sustain a workable auto-funded growth with no additional investments.
I have a feeling that my purchase history & activity was one of the reasons credits were pulled (aside from other legal and scam-avoidance reasons). Even with the average lowest prices among the other shops for the most part, I was still able to make enormous "profits" (though those were converted directly back to pack purchases) and this put the loss of actual revenue on Octopi's side since in aggregate pack purchases were not as robust. I was essentially creating wealth with no corresponding revenue for Octopi. With no credits and rune-only trading, the negative value of market economics is driven to the end-user side and Octopi is neutral and/or seeing a higher real-world revenue stream.
Sorry for the long and probably off-topic reply :)
